Description
Beachwood Blendery is a small batch beer producer established in 2014 by the same creative minds behind the award winning Beachwood Brewing. Beachwood Blendery has embarked on an undoubtedly geeky quest to recreate the Lambic style beers of Belgium. Our beers are produced using ingredients, equipment, and brewing methods that are both steeped in tradition and admittedly modern.

500mL bottle, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals moderate funk, a little oak, and some wild yeast. Flavour is fairly peppery, with gentle funk, some white pepper, and a little oak. Gentle acidity, finishing peppery and funky. Not exactly like an authentic gueuze, but it does have a nice funk to it. Good stuff.

There's a lot of woody, leathery notes so it seems similar to gueuze. The body is a bit thin, again lots of nice leathery accents, complex bugs, and a good bit of barrel, too. I like it.

500mL bottle, pours a hazy golden blonde with a medium white head. Aroma is loaded with intense fruity peaches upfront, with a hint of funk -- but mostly just peaches. Flavour is loaded with tart, bright peaches upfront, with moderate acidity, and light oak. The tart peaches is pretty assertive. Nice stuff.

Pale and a bit hazy. Lots of peach on the nose. Fairly well balanced between lots of peach and a decent acetic element. Solid.

It's blonde, has a light tartness in the aroma, and just a touch of apple. Quite tart up front, a bit of wildness, and in the back there's a bit of apple sweetness as well. It's okay, but I wouldn't mind a bit more complexity.

500mL bottle, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals a little wild yeast, some gentle green apple, and a touch of oak -- pretty tepid. Flavour is full of tart apples, gentle wild yeast, oak, and a lot of sourness. Lots of tart apple on the finish, with a touch of acetone. It's alright.
